Tonight's games 2-4-15

[I.I.]

Temple @ South Florida....If USF plays like they did here, Temple will be hard pressed to win.

We need OSU, MSU, WSU, Memphis, and Creighton to win.

Any team that shoots 50% from 3 and take 20+ is going to be hard to beat.

UConn continues to look worse by the game.

Does UCONN go from an OK road "L" to a must "W?"

 

[TU_BLA]

Between UCONN and Memphis road games we need to win at least one, hold serve at home.

USF gets clobbered by Temple and looks like they've never shot a basketball before in doing so. Seriously, teams are just absolutely jacked to play us now and laying out of their minds. And we're still winning!

USF shot 35% overall, 25% from 3 tonight. Refuse to believe our defense is that poor. Watching the game back some of the 3s USF hot against us were just ridiculous

UCONN trailed ECU 34-24 before Boatright hit a 3 just before halftime.

That started UCONN on a 41-18 run for the rest of the game & a 65-52 win. UCONN isn't dead yet.

Wichita had a thank god we pulled that one out of our a*ses win over Bradley. We're not the only ones doing it.

OkState beat Texas. There's some positive RPI pts for us. Creighton playing Xavier tough.Could be more help.

Loyola just rained on or parade, now Xavier's working on doing the same thing.

 

[GoldandBlew_rivals]

All teams who needed to win won tonight with the exception of Missouri State. Good night for Tulsa!

 

[Gmoney4WW]

I'll take 4-1. thank you Creighton.

 

[ctt8410]

Creighton jumps from 145 to 125 in the RPI. It would be nice if they could steal a couple more like this.

To be fair, that Missouri State Team isn't qute the same as when we faced them with their 19 ppg scorer

What has happened to UCONN? They used to be a top 10 team every year.

Jim Calhoun's players are gone.

In the 90's,
B4 U Conn won their 1st Nat'l Championship
U Conn only missed 2 NCAA appearances ('93 & '97)

Since 1999 when they won their 1st Nat'l Championship
U Conn has missed 4 NCAA tourney appearances
('01, '07, '10, & '13)

2 of U Conn's Nat'l Championship Titles ('11 & last year)
Occurred the following season after they missed
even making the NCAA Tourney the previous season

Behind Boatman, U Conn returns their next 3 top scorers
Hamilton (frosh) & (2 sophmores) Brimah, & Purvis
& their top 3 rebounders (all soph's), Hamilton, Facey, & Brimah
2 other (soph's) Samuel & Cassell Jr. play alot of minutes off the bench.

So, I don't expect them 2 B down very long.
Definitely could B a dangerous team come AAC Tourney time
